I was in the Manteo Napa store this morning and they had a sign that they have boat trailer tires in stock.
Good Luck!

Thanks, the NAPA stores have mounted tires. I stopped by Colony Tires and I can get a set of 4 mounted/balanced, etc. on my rims for $400. I'll keep all but the shot old ones as extra spares for the drive back based on my wonderful trailering luck...

Evil,,you will be happy with those new tires!

I bought two from northern tool store about three years ago and they still look great. They have been to the keys once and on the hwy for over 300 trips.

If you need the name of them let me know and Ill get it for you.

Les,
I've done well with them, but this was a spur of the moment deal and they didn't have anything close on price.

Greg , sounds like you got a good deal .
When I changed trucks and before I could get another Draw bar , I was to low on the hitch and blew two tires before I picked up a new Proper height bar . Now my trailer sits LEVEL and I have had no more tire problems , just got to remember to check the PSI.
